wbmw, The funny thing in this case is that you AMDroids celebrate over this kind of news as an early indication of failure, when you really ought to be getting just a little bit nervous that Intel has such contingency plans already in place. Good spin, but the fact is that it is an indication of impending failure. You know Hernan Cortez burned his ships, since defeat was not an option. Intel is busy preparing for a defeat by building life boats, and loading them on Itanic for it's maiden voyage. I am not sure the passengers (OEMs) will be very eager to board the ship, when they see that the crew of the Itanic have the lifeboats, but they don't. When the news is digested that Intel is busy preparing for the sinking of Itanic, we can go back to my favorite Itanic related subject - litigation. Joe

Re: you really ought to be getting just a little bit nervous that Intel has such contingency plans already in place. Agreed. Rambus was the best thing that happened for AMD since Dirk Meyer joined them. IA-64 looks like it will be quite a bit more beneficial for AMD than Rambus ever was, but having to compete with AMD will block Intel from succeeding with such a travesty of a design as IA-64. Every computer user should be grateful to AMD for stopping Intel from cramming their high priced, low performance, generally terrible designs down the throats of buyers.
